Post-16 Transport

Going to sixth form or college in September 2024? Have you thought about how you will travel there?
 
Students are who aged 16 and over do not receive a free bus pass to travel to college or sixth form. You will therefore need to decide how you are going to travel there and what is the best way to pay for a bus pass or season ticket.
 
To find out about the options open to you, please visit the Wiltshire Council website before the end of June 2024 as you may be able to pay in instalments if you apply before July.
 
If you need help with transport, e.g. if you are on a low income, please see the sixth form/college information below.
